Dominic rushed to the dock. He stopped short when he saw Lucas helping Valentina out of the boat. For a brief second, he didn't move and simply watched.
Blood trickled down Valentina's arm, staining her sleeve. The sight made him frown. He strode over.
"What is going on?"
Both Lucas and Valentina looked at him. Before Lucas could reply, Valentina spoke.
"There was a movement near the perimeter. A group of people tried to breach the island."
Her breath was slightly uneven. "I intercepted them before they got close."
Dominic's expression turned even more serious.
"They were heavily armed," she continued. "But we handled it. Some were killed. The rest fled."
She ground her teeth in irritation. "I chased them. But they escaped."
She tightened her grip on her gun. "Those bastards are Marco's people. They wanted retaliation for the recent attack. But I have my doubts."
His eyes narrowed.
